Yuck! - by Alaya

My dad is cooking dinner
I tell him no vegetables for me!
But then I see a gigantic plate of
asparagus and brussel sprouts!
I tell him I won't eat those
But at dinner I find out
they are just noodles
Yum!

Hiking - by Alaya

My mother says I have to go
I tell her I've got the measles
She tells me that I'm just excited
then I tell her I have a cold
I tell her my forehead is burning hot
and that it's going to explode
My mother takes my temperature
I tell her I think it's gone
I tell her my head is bruised
She touches my head and
I say ouch! that hurts!
She calls me a silly goose
I tell her my leg broke in half
She tells me she looked at it and
it was just a red mark
I finally get out of bed
When we come back from hiking
I tell my mother
Can we do that again?
